Manufacturer Narrative
|
An event regarding crack/fracture involving an accolade broach was reported.The event was confirmed.Method & results: -device evaluation and results: material analysis of the returned device was performed which concluded that "the color coded polymer insert of the broach fractured in overload.The direction of fracture of the polymer insert was consistent with loading from an unknown side force that also deformed the rim hole of the broach.No material or manufacturing defects were observed on the surfaces examined." -medical records received and evaluation: not performed as patient factors did not contributed to the event.-device history review: device history review indicated the devices accepted into final stock from the reported lot were free from discrepancies -complaint history review: there has been no other event for the lot referenced.Conclusions: the reported event was confirmed as per material analysis performed on the returned device which concluded that the color coded polymer insert of the broach fractured in overload.The direction of fracture of the polymer insert was consistent with loading from an unknown side force that also deformed the rim hole of the broach.No material or manufacturing defects were observed on the surfaces examined.No further investigation is required at this time.If the additional information will be received, this investigation will be reopened and re-evaluated.
